Heart Health Sampler Basket
Our gift basket contains heart healthy treats perfect for heart patients and those on heart-healthy diets.
A healthy heart...what could be more important? A diagnosis or family history of heart disease requires lifestyle changes to regain or retain heart health. This thoughtful basket not only shows you really care, but also educates the recipient on how certain foods can help the heart. The Heart Health Sampler Basket is also a perfect gift for yourself once you've decided to make important heart-healthy dietary changes.
Heart health has many facets, and a variety of foods, vitamins, minerals, and phytochemicals are necessary to address each one.
High cholesterol is bad news for the heart, but we've included a crunchy, pecan sprinkled, all natural maple kettle corn that can actually help lower the levels of bad cholesterol. LesserEvil Maple Pecan popcorn is air popped to keep it low in fat and has plant sterols to help lower the levels of bad cholesterol! Our Clue Bar also helps lower cholesterol and tastes like a yummy oatmeal cookie!
Foods with fiber also help lower cholesterol levels to keep the heart healthy. For a powerful cholesterol-fighting start to your day, try a breakfast of delicious steel cut oatmeal and dried apples.
Vitamin E is a powerful antioxidant with cardio-protective qualities. It's easy and delicious to consume this vitamin with chocolate covered sunflower seeds (sodium free!) and roasted flavored pumpkin seeds.
Magnesium protects against heart disease and is also important for regulation of heart rhythm and blood clotting. In light of this evidence, we've included magnesium rich chocolate (yes, chocolate--it's also a good potassium and flavonoid source).
Cherries are a wonderful source of pectin, a soluble fiber that helps control blood cholesterol levels. To reap the benefits of these delicious, juicy fruits, we've included our favorite dried cherries.
